In the real world at a major Fortune 500 company, Paulson and Cox would both be fired.

Either that or they’d both receive promotions and a chance to work in Uzbekistan... where they could explore new career opportunities and do less damage to the economy.

Hell, no. If you want your socialist so damn bad, go vote for a democrat.

A Democrat...like McCain?

It's funny and sickening at the same time to realize that folks are so scared of the monster in the closet that they are willing to surrender to the equally scary monster right under their own beds.

IF you think they are “equally scary” than you must be the type who wets himself over their own shadow

“Beg your pardon...which of the two Big Government freaks running for office were you referring to: the one with the (R) or the one with the (D)?”

Don’t you know?

Obama is the devil and McCain is the Messiah.

Now, switch the names and you have DU, KOSKIDS and Moveon.

George Will is another in a long line of self-styled conservative Gods who look down their noses a la Charles Gibson at the Girl From the North Country. All these Beltway types i.e. David Brooks, Ben Stein, Charles Krauthammer, Will and most of the Bow Tie Geniuses at the American Spectator are driven to distraction by the notion that pretty can’t be smart or tough or strong or principled only “cute”. Sick of em’. Leave em in the dust.

Correct...Don’t know for a fact but believe that crowd in the pic is from Portland, OR when he was stumping against Billary.

Good point, I think many of the politicians hoped that they could keep this under wraps for a bit longer and avoid the bail out that we are now faced both sides of the Atlantic.

Instead Obama decided to make political capital out of it, but of course we are not allowed to question his patriotism. The classic thing is that both parties are equally to blame and one held Congress and one held the White House so really neither candidate should be able to to make political capital out of it no doubt though the MSM will ensure Obama does.

I read anything written by someone on the Washington Compost with skepticism. I really hate when people post pro Obama articles here. There are enough on DU.
Obama lacks experience and even he said in 2004 that it wasn't a job where you should do on job training. He is a Marxist and anyone would be better for America.

Why don’t those who want a third party start years before the election instead of casting their vote for someone who may get 500 votes? I think both parties are broken at the moment and have no problem with a true conservative party I would like that, but I won’t throw away my vote I will use it to stop Obama is possible. To do otherwise is to cut off your nose to spite your face.

This has been a question I've wondered for a long time. These third-parties really need to do more to make themselves known and to show how they are an alternative to the others.

We found the McLiberal Strawberries. Barney Frank and Chris Dodd ate them. The one with the Messiah complex is McLoser and his jock straps.

McCain's fact-free slander

He seems to reserve this for his Republican colleagues while embracing his "bipartisan" friends on the left.

Will nailed this one.

Four years of this? And people wonder why I may have to pass...
